It's short, but here you go. Don't forget, I'm typing all this on my phone, so the 1000 word chapters don't come easy. Some more news is: you're right on my heels, I've barely started chapter 14, yet in a completely different story, I'm 10 chapters ahead, I guess this is because the ideas are coming easier for that one, and this one's ideas are running short...feel free to review and tell me what you want to happen in the next few chapters, it's the only way I can really continue right now. Also, one reviewer asked for a certain scene to happen again, and here you go, it's in this chapter, and since you've reminded me about it, I'm gonna try and shove it in the story a little more often.
...Damn, that's a long AN...sorry. Read, review, give me ideas, anything that comes to mind.
Lucifer grumbled to himself as he searched for a third job, since his second didn't pay as much as he'd hoped. His third job would be online, something he could do at home with his spare time.
Murasaki's parents' were putting in some money too, so they could afford a good apartment, if not a house.
Next to Lucifer, Murasaki was on her laptop searching for a house, a task Lucifer had left to her since he discovered that she loved doing it. When Lucifer checked on her though, he caught her looking longingly at a mansion, which obviously wasn't in their price range.
"Mi-chan" Lucifer scolded, Murasaki jumped and sheepishly closed the tab, going back to looking at far cheaper houses.
Suddenly, Murasaki struck gold. She'd found a very cheep house, which Lucifer could afford without the added money.
"It's cheep" Lucifer nodded in agreement, "but it's only got one bedroom".
"It's also got an attic, as well as a very large basement" Murasaki argues, "we can renovate the basement to add some extra space, and the attic could be the place where we put stuff for the triplets until we have to set it up".
"How much do you think the renovation would cost?" Lucifer wondered.
"I dunno, we'll have to see" Murasaki shrugged, turning to goggle.
While Lucifer waited for Murasaki to do all the math and figure it all out, he turned back to his laptop and went back to searching for his third job, which he was getting more ideas for.
Suddenly, Lucifer was pushed sideways into the ground, and a weight he hadn't felt in weeks pushed down on his lower back.
"Hey Lucy?" Murasaki chimed.
"Yeah, yeah, I get it" Lucifer rolled his eyes and let his wings come out, "w-what's wi-with th-the s-sudden e-eagerness?"
"I haven't done this in a while" Murasaki replied, brushing his feathers, "I was starting to miss it".
"St-starting? Th-the l-last t-time y-you di-did thi-this wa-was d-during Ch-christmas, wh-whi-which w-was j-j-just o-over a-a mon-month ag-ago, m-might I-I ad-add" Lucifer stuttered, "wh-what m-made y-you th-think -of i-it an-anyway?"
In response, Murasaki shifted on Lucifer's back and showed him her laptop, an image of a black feathery pillow was on the screen.
"W-well I-I h-hope y-you kno-know tha-that I-I d-don't pl-plan o-on plu-plucking my-myself" Lucifer shuddered at the thought.
"I know, but it was the feathers, I'm sure I would have done the same thing if it was a blanket or something" Murasaki shrugged, "also, I figured out the cost of the renovations, we can afford it, but it'd still take a bit of saving".
"Obviously" Lucfer rolled his eyes, "alright, get your mom".
Murasaki grinned and grabbed her phone off the table to call her mom.
